Celebrations in Belgrade After Student-Led Election Victory

  • On Sunday, the Student List unseated longtime leader Aleksandar Vucic, ending his 14-year rule as tens of thousands celebrated the historic result across Belgrade and the country.
  • Demonstrations erupted following the 2024 collapse of a railway station canopy in Novi Sad that killed 16 people, though Vucic and the Serbian Progressive Party repeatedly denied corruption allegations.
  • Without a single figurehead, the movement selected 250 diverse professionals, including cardiologist Ilija Srdanovic as head of the candidate list, to represent them in parliament.
  • Under Serbia's constitution, the new coalition has 90 days to form a government once parliament convenes, though Teneo Global Research warned Monday that bureaucratic resistance could complicate the transition.
  • Student List representative Jovo Bakic confirmed the movement intends to maintain Serbia's partnership with Russia while pursuing European accession, as Ukraine and European officials watch the transition closely.
